Negan sure likes to talk about dicks

It took the ZA to get Negan to admit he's really bi-curious.

[Red Fields]

Bye-bye Peepee!

[CletusMusashi]

Wow, he actually shut up for multiple bat swings!

[chick binewski]

They start to get to halfway listenable dialogue with JDM doing more than crowing so of course it's over in 20 seconds.

[MrsRafaelBarba]

Anyone else's eyes starting to glaze over?

[shanndee]

Oh. So I guess this means a talented actor is now free to pursue actual good roles...

[EllenC]

Honestly, I do not care 1 bit about Negan's backstory at this point.

That's a sad ineffectual bunch of walkers out there.  In FTWD, they were able to topple RVs.

Yeah, but they're on all sides instead of just one side. One side pushes, the other side pushes back. Stalemate.

Starting?

[Red Fields]

 I can’t imagine there is anything that could make Negan sympathetic. 

[Gobi]

Steven Ogg on Talking Dead? Is someone going to die?

[candall]

Even replaying, I couldn't tell.  Did Father G stop, drop and roll out of there, or did Negan shove him out to the herd?

[Straycat80]

Did Daryl wash his hair?

He managed to push past Negan and lock himself in another room in the trailer/shipping container.

[Gobi]

Rick just can't tolerate a plan.

[chick binewski]

Oh Darryl. Bless you and your attempts to end this quickly!

I  think it was stop, drop, and roll.  ??

[Red Fields]

 I think he shoved him .

Pretty sure he stopped, dropped and rolled.

Daryl doesn't give any fucks about the savior families and children and what not.

Nah.  He ain't doin' that.

My attention is wandering so much, and the screen is so dark, that I have no idea what happened

[MrsRafaelBarba]

Really?

But it's a glass window and a bunch of flimsy boards with chinks of light showing through.  And the walkers are just like, rawr rawr rawr.

[raven]

This won't end well.  I mean, weren't these kinds of things discussed and decided upon BEFORE war?

[eejm]

Looks like Daryl and Rick are hogging the "power" now.

[Red Fields]

Oy vey.

[CletusMusashi]

Fuck you, Rick. You could have shot Negan 500 times in the season premier.

[raven]

Whelp, Butch and Sundance, good job, you lost all the explosives. 

[SoSueMe]

Hug it out.

[minamurray78]

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

[mightysparrow]

These two decide to take a moment to have a lover's quarrel?  FUCKERY!

[minamurray78]

Well that was dumb.

[AimingforYoko]

You would think Rick and Daryl would've learned this lesson by now after Jesus and the RV. (Damn, that sound like a parable.)

[chick binewski]

Really? No, that did not happen. Not after the buddy car chase episode!

The show is determined to lose all the goodwill they built last week. (well, except for Shiva. *sniff*)

Tara mentioned the workers to Rick in the S7 midseason premiere.

[nodorothyparker]

So this week Rick has the pacifist stick?  Now, Negan AND Daryl are more clear eyed about this than Rick, who can't be assed to even acknowledge that his big PLAN is why most of the Kingdom crew and his own people are dead now.

That is still one of my favorite episodes.

I mean, what to do about them.  It's like these decisions are being made on the fly, which is why we get these dumb arguments.

[mightysparrow]

Rick, when DARYL thinks your plans are shit, guess what?  YOUR PLANS ARE SHIT!  Judith gave up on your plans months ago.

[chick binewski]

Oh. So I guess there's gonna be a horde Negan fights through? Way to go with the spoilerific ads running out of order AMC!

[eejm]

Rick is going to have to ride in the bitch seat.  

[Gobi]

Well, this is awkward.

[raven]

Choke hold's illegal!!! Early season call back :D

 

Aw, our boys split up.  Daryl was pouting.

[candall]

Ooh, I think that shampoo question has been settled.

[EllenC]

Thank goodness this episode has extra time, because it is riveting.

[AimingforYoko]

"Chokehold's illegal, asshole."

[eejm]

Negan leads, "People...needing people..."

I understand Rick'POV, but there's not enough time for Dwight to start a Fifth Column movement among

The workers.

 

The Kingdom lost most of their army and Shiva.

 

Which has me giving side eye, I recall seeing more people in The Kingdom.
